Development shapes travel; travel shapes the air; the air shapes health; and today’s decisions shape what the next generation inherits. 6 links measured from this postcode’s own figures — each ends in a question, not a forecast.

24 applications within 2km propose building or changing something, 7 of them involving homes. A further 1 concern trees and are counted separately. They change the canopy, not the traffic.
How might that development affect travel demand on the existing network, and is anyone assessing it cumulatively, or one application at a time?

Today's reading is fair (24), with nitrogen dioxide, the pollutant most tied to traffic, at 1.9 µg/m³. Air quality is a long-run exposure, not a daily event: what matters for health is the average someone breathes over years, not one good or bad day.

Large developments within 1km that were granted permission in the last five years, newest decision first. These stay listed long after they drop out of the 90-day view above. A scheme is at its most visible on the ground exactly when it is quietest on the register.
No large scheme within 1km was granted permission in the last five years. That does not rule out building work. Smaller schemes and older permissions are not counted here.
Permission is not the same as building work. No open dataset records whether a scheme has started or finished, so these are listed as consented and dated, nothing more. In England a permission normally lapses if work has not begun within three years, which is why the window stops at five.

No open national feed covers every council's roadworks, so this is a link rather than a list.
Bus stops, stations and tram stops within 1km, from the Department for Transport's national register. A stop's two sides (one for each direction) are counted once.
31 bus stops within 1km.
Distances are straight lines, so the walk is always a little further, especially where a railway or main road sits in between. Stops come from NaPTAN, the Department for Transport’s national register, which lists where stops are but not which buses call at them today.
No bus is being tracked within 1km at this moment. Outside running hours that is normal; it says nothing about which routes serve these stops during the day.

Police-reported injury collisions within 1km over the last five years, from the national record.
150 reported injury collisions within 1km, 2021 to 2025
Counted per person hurt, so one collision can appear in more than one row. The collisions themselves are drawn on the map in “Your neighbourhood at a glance” — switch on the Collisions layer.
Source: Department for Transport, STATS19. Figures show police-reported personal-injury collisions and do not by themselves indicate the cause of a collision or the relative safety of different forms of transport.

Police publish these snapped to anonymised map points, never real addresses.
348 incidents were recorded near this postcode in July 2026.
Broadly unchanged
1008 recorded across May to July 2026, against 1111 in May to July 2025. The same three months a year earlier, so the comparison isn’t measuring the seasons.
Counts are of records, not convictions, snapped to anonymised map points and published about two months in arrears. A change of a few incidents at this scale is noise. The shape over a year is the part worth reading. The feed keeps about three years, so its earliest year will drop off as new months appear; figures already gathered here are kept.
Source: data.police.uk. Figures are police-reported incidents snapped to anonymised map points; they measure what was reported, not everything that happened.
